hands up anyone here that considers themselves particularly tech-savvy. And i don't need computer help, i need someone who knows stuff about gadgets and toys and stuff like that.
handheld or palmtop or equivalent - so easily transportable is the key. internet connectable, even if i have to get a mobile to get it to work that is acceptable. basically i want to be able to get to the internet, while basically on the street. I know the old Visio Handspring (i think) used to be good for this sort of work. It did used to have a detachable fold out keyboard that you could get. Now the problem is i don't know this technology, so i have no idea what i am looking for. And also whats the story with mobiles, sorry cellphones in the US. Prepaid? Contract? Casual? Connectivity etc etc?
There's was this really sweet Sony Viao I ran across once that had beatuiful color and an inbuilt camera, like a laptop but a 3rd the size. not as long as the average box of tissues. That was in 1999. By now I'm sure they have wireless. I'll go looking for it. I want one too.

don't need a lot of the crap with it, but i imagine they don't make them minus mp3 player and camera nowadays.
USB would be helpful, but i imagine we are getting into computer stuff now.
but that's pretty much the sort of thing i'm after. a full size keyboard would be helpful, as i'm likely to be typing drunk or drugged. a lot. really.
but this is the sort of stuff i am looking for.
Cheers.
